The Wild Hunt

The Tallest Man on Earth

Frenetic fingerpicking and a raspy, urgent howl. Ten tracks of sun-dappled indie folk that feel like a solitary trek through a Swedish forest in late October.

April 12, 2010 · Dead Oceans

Find on Amazon

A restless, wind-swept energy that balances existential yearning with a fierce, foot-stomping optimism.
